Privacy Policy
Last updated 2026-11-12. The short version: your images stay on your device.
The short version
ImageCompressorNow compresses pictures inside your web browser. The files you choose are read by your own device, processed by your own device and saved by your own device. We do not receive them, store them or look at them.
What we do not collect
- Your images, before or after compression.
- Any account details, because there are no accounts.
- Payment information, because the tool is free.
What may be collected technically
This site is hosted on Vercel. Like most hosts, Vercel and its network keep ordinary server logs that can include your IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time. We use this kind of information only to keep the site running, to understand traffic in aggregate and to spot abuse. It is not used to identify you personally.
Third-party scripts
Two optional helper libraries are loaded on demand from public content delivery networks: JSZip, when you click the button to download several images as a ZIP, and heic2any, when you add an iPhone HEIC photo. Loading them means your browser contacts that network, which can see your IP address and the file being requested. Your images are not sent along with these requests.
Cookies and local storage
We do not set cookies and we do not store your images or settings in your browser. If we add analytics or advertising in the future, we will update this page first and describe what is collected and why.
Metadata in your pictures
Compressing a picture re-encodes it, which removes embedded metadata such as camera model and GPS coordinates from the output file. The original file on your device is not changed.
Children
The site is a general-purpose utility and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.
Your choices and requests
Because we hold no personal data about you, there is usually nothing to access or delete. If you believe we hold something about you, or you have any privacy question, write to imagecompressornow@gmail.com.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with an updated date at the top.
